$1,000,000 Milly Maker Ownership
| Week 3 | Ownership |
| G Smith | 1.15% |
| J Mason | 35.48% |
| J Taylor | 24.07% |
| D Metcalf | 9.28% |
| R Pearsall | 10.96% |
| T Tucker | 0.58% |
| B Bowers | 7.84% |
| C Mccaffrey | 25.47% |
| Vikings DST | 4.57% |
| Total | 119.40% |
This lineup featured a contrarian Las Vegas stack surrounded by a lot of chalk. Mason, Taylor, and CMC were all RB chalk that were jammed into the lineup so the 119% total ownership -while higher than most weeks – was to be expected with the RB chalk smashing.
Top Leverage Plays
Geno Smith at 1%
After a miserable monday night football performance against the Chargers Defense that left the Las Vegas offense looking inept, the field was scared off of Geno. He was one of the top leverage plays on the slate, hitting 5X his salary at 1% ownership.
Tre Tucker at .58%
Tre Tucker was the guy you needed to win the $1,000,000 on Sunday as the top 10 leaderboards of the Milly Maker were dominated by Tucker builds. Highest scoring player on the slate at under 1% ownership.
Vikings at 4%
Vikings DST was another gotta have it play like Tre Tucker. 4% ownership with an absurd 30 points for a DST.

| G Smith | $5,200 | 5.01x |
| J Mason | $5,400 | 4.92x |
| J Taylor | $7,200 | 4.97x |

| C Mccaffrey | $8,200 | 2.92x |
| Vikings DST | $3,400 | 8.82x |
| Total | $50,000 | 4.62x |
I was blown away and had to check my math when looking at the value that was off the chart in this lineup; The Vikings DST hit a ridiculous 8X and Tre Tucker hit 12.9X his salary – I’m not sure I’ve seen value that incredible in years’ of studying winning Milly Maker lineups. This lineup was a double pay up at RB with Taylor/CMC and Tucker at 3400 was the value needed for that payup.
